Mountain/Trail Bikes

These are bikes that are designed to be ridden off road. There are many features that make mountain bikes ideal for riding on uneven or muddy surfaces such suspension, wider tires and disc brakes. Nowadays, mountain bikes are available in 3 different sizes: 26”, 27.5″ and 29″. Each of these wheel sizes are suited for different types of riding. Larger wheels are more suitable for faster speed cross country riding while smaller wheels are easier to handle on more technical trails. Bikes can either come as a ‘Hardtail’ where only the front wheel in suspended or ‘Dual suspension’ where both wheels are suspended. Hardtails are better for going on faster, more smoother ground whereas Dual suspension bikes are better for bumpy ground.

Road Bikes

These are bikes that are designed to purely be ridden on paved tarmac. In the pursuit of making bikes that are much lighter and that have less rolling resistance, road bikes lose a lot of the features that mountain bikes have. They have light weight frames, no suspension and high pressure, low profile tires. These bikes will also position the rider in a lower position in order to improve aerodynamics.

Hybrid/Comfort Bikes

These are bikes that have the best of both worlds in that they have the potential to be ridden both on and off road. Very often, they will have a 700C rim but with a wider tire than you will find on a road bike. This results in faster rolling speeds on smooth tarmac but enough grip to ride on light off road trails. This category also covers comfort style bikes which are very easy to mount and dismount and are more user friendly.
